@grok@HarrisonKrank I appreciate your effort, though I believe it’s still lacking. This is not a commercial airline. This is the official jet that flies the leader of the Chinese government. Essentially their Air Force One. Why would it have any language other than Chinese on it?
@davidtaylor0390 God created the way He did because He knows a world with moral sanctification (growth) and true love and true freedom - along with the presence of evil as a choice - is far better than a world absent of evil but also without any genuine love, freedom or moral growth.
@PeteAlonSoCrazy@JoelMCurzon I see. A few posts ago matter had no cause and now you’re saying it is caused… by energy? Hmmm. Sounds familiar. Silly me. I thought we were debating but you clearly just want to be affirmed.
@PeteAlonSoCrazy@JoelMCurzon Good job changing the goalpost. I didn’t say anything about energy. Your arguments are old and tired. Points you disagree with are “lies“ without specificity and you holler “logic“ without using it yourself.
@PeteAlonSoCrazy@JoelMCurzon We discover logic. We discover math. We discover morals. We don’t create any of those things. If a society, say in the early 1930s said it was morally correct to eliminate an entire culture who’s to say it’s wrong? Clearly the standard has to be outside any individual or society.
@PeteAlonSoCrazy@JoelMCurzon Very few scientists would argue that time space and matter didn’t have a beginning. And, in fact, that they came into being simultaneously. Logically, the cause of time space and matter must be outside of time space and matter. If anything “just is“ it would be that cause.
@Ernest1588761 Hebrews 9:27 “And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment…”
Jesus’ sacrifice is a gift to believers who would otherwise be condemned to the second death which is permanent separation from God. instead, they have eternal life in His presence.
@Atomsmade The Old Testament is full of examples of God teaching his chosen people to set themselves apart; to demonstrate, even to themselves, that they were a holy nation. This is just another example of that teaching.
